This time of year is hit and miss for rain, the games should all go ahead ok i would have thought.
That's good to hear. Thankfully Harare hasn't had any rain today, I guess that is the main thing! :)
I am sure we might win this game.
:lol: Yes it always feels that way when supporting Zimbabwe.

Chibhabha collided with Chanderpaul. :(
He is down on the ground. Physio comes out to have a look. All seems ok. Zimbabwe players are in a huddle.

Morton out now. Finally although I would have wanted Chanderpaul to be the wicket. Still great stuff srom our guys. There was talk ealier on about Steu Matsikenyeri. I am sure today he proved a lot of us wrong. Great stuff.

I see cricinfo is back online. Wonder what they think of Zim today seeing as they always post negative articles about us.

I forsee a large plate of humble pie. Probably laced with comments like "the West Indies didn't really try" and "it was a fluke".

Finally! Someone holds on to a catch!!
46.4 Brent to Lewis, OUT, heaves it in the air straight into the hands of Chigumbura at deep square leg.

Unfortunately I don't have any news, perhaps maehara does though.

Earlier zimdan said crowds are generally better on weekends than weekdays, so today's might not have been a huge crowd. Cricinfo said the "crowd was getting excited" so I assume there are a few people there :)

Bravo out, clean bowled by Chibhabha. :D :D

WI - pathetic performance.
